M. Aemilius Lepidus with Octavian as Triumvirs (43-33 BC)AR Denarius
20.69 mm 3.66 gr.
Obv: LEPIDVS PONT MAX III V R P C, Lepidus bare head right
Rev: CAESAR IMA III VIR R P C, Octavian bare head right
Mint: Military mint in Italy moving with Lepidus (42 BC)
Crawford 495/2a, noting ligated IMA reverse die; RSC I 2d; Sear HCRI 140, note; Sydenham 1323

[2 obverse matches in Schaefer's die study, 13/35.

This coin reflects the scarce reverse die with LMA (ligated) in the reverse legend, rather than IMP. An in-period Lepidus has been elusive. Unfortunately, removal of moderate PVC residue also removed part of a nice toning. Whether this was an issue of Lepidus or Octavian has been unsettled, but it appears now accepted as correctly attributed to Lepidus.]

RIC 804 DomitianÆ Dupondius, 11.99g
Rome mint, 95-96 AD
Obv: IMP CAES DOMIT AVG GERM COS XVII CENS PER P P; Head of Domitian, radiate, bearded, r.
Rev: VIRTVTI AVGVSTI; S C in field; Virtus stg. r., foot on helmet, with spear and parazonium
RIC 804 (C). BMC 479. BNC 512.
Acquired from Aegean, March 2024.

The Virtus type was struck repeatedly on Domitian's middle bronze from 84 onwards. I. Carradice in his 1983 monograph on Domitian's coinage says the following concerning the type - 'Virtus is a military type, symbolic of the courage of Domitian and the mutual devotion between the army and emperor.' Virtus first appears on the coinage in the flurry of Germania Capta types that were struck soon after Domitian's German triumph. She is impressively depicted in traditional Amazon attire and likely based on a cult image. This common variety is from Domitian's last bronze issue struck between September 95 and September 96.

Though the mint of Antioch struck this type for Galerius and Maximinus; the obverse with the highly decorated armored bust was only struck for Maximinus II. Antioch was likely his principal residence from 309- 311, so not surprising this special type was struck there. This type may also have referenced the campaign against the Sassanids (not only the martial bust, but also battle scene on shield) waged by Maximinus (late 309-early 310) and perhaps also his desire to be named Augustus; which may have happened during the same campaign-- “at the last general muster he had been saluted by his army under the title of Augustus.” (Lactantius XXXII) Galerius recognized him as Augustus (mid 310) but since the troops of Maximinus had already raised him up, this was probably just a formality.


a bit from Ammianus Marcellinus on the draco standards carried by the horsemen on the shield-

"Behind the motley cavalcade that preceded him the emperor's person was surrounded by purple banners woven in the form of dragons and attached to the tops of gilded and jewelled spears; the breeze blew through their gaping jaws so that they seemed to be hissing with rage, and their voluminous tails streamed behind them on the wind."

RIC 060A Domitian as Caesar [Titus] Æ Sestertius, 25.95g
Rome mint, 79 AD
Obv: CAESAR AVG F DOMITIANVS COS VI; Head of Domitian, laureate, bearded, r.
Rev: S C in field; Spes stg. l., with flower
RIC 60A. BMC -. BNC -.
Ex Harlan J Berk BBS 225, 30 November 2023, lot 119. Ex Curtis Clay Collection. Ex CNG E281, 20 June 2012, lot 305.

All the sestertii struck under Titus in 79 are rare. This recently discovered Spes variety struck for Domitian Caesar is from his first bronze issue of the reign (a carry-over type from Vespasian's coinage). It's an obverse die matched with the issue's Pax (RIC 59) and Mars (RIC 60) types, all of which are contemporaneous reverses struck for Titus. Curtis Clay has proposed this small issue of Domitian Caesar sestertii are consistent with the Thracian mint's style and fabric (convex reverses) and likely belong to that mint's first output under Titus. This new variety has been added to the RIC II.1 Addenda & Corrigenda as 60A under Titus, second recorded specimen.

RICIMER.jpg
123b. RicimerMagister Militum 456-472

Ricimer, a Suevi and Visigoth, effectively controlled the Western Empire as the magister militum. After the death of Libius Severus in 465, Ricimer struck coins with his monogram during the interregnum before Anthemius was appointed Augustus. The period of the Ricimer coinage was 25 September 465 to 12 April 467.
